Day 150. Pinch Harmonic Solo

Today I finally learnt how to do pinch harmonics and implemented them into the solo. Unfortunately, my pick became kinda messed up because of the way I was doing them, so I had to start over and teach myself how to play them again from scratch. It’s not perfect, but I got the sound from time to time.
